Funding Daily: Fit Pay raises $3.1M to bring payments features to more wearables like the Pebble

Mobile payment service Fit Pay snagged a $3.1 million seed round led by security company Giesecke & Devrient, the startup announced today.

Fit Pay said its technology “allows wearable device manufacturers to seamlessly add contactless payment capabilities to their products.”

Plug and Play joined the round for the startup, which participated in the Plug and Play Tech Center’s FinTech Accelerator Program in fall 2015.

Fit Pay is launching a campaign next Monday to crowdfund a new payment smartstrap for Pebble Time called Pagaré.
